Hi, I have recently been asked if I know anyone who could undertake the restoration of a very old (1930s) coal fired tank engine. At this stage I not sure if this means to working order or cosmetically restored. I am aware that the boiler may not get a certificate.

You might do better asking G1MRA because the work is similar but there are more poeple out there doing it.  But I'd be interested to know what it is!
